Produktbeschreibung

Pilgrim shrines were places of healing, holiness, and truth in early modern France. By analyzing the creation of these shrines as natural, legendary, and historic places whose authority provided a new foundation for post-Reformation Catholic life, Virginia Reinburg examines the impact of the Reformation and religious wars on French society.
